Techniques for using near field communication to add a person to an email thread

摘要

A computer-implemented method for communication between a first mobile device and a second mobile device using near field communication (NFC) is presented. The method includes determining, at the first mobile device, whether NFC is enabled with the second mobile device. The method includes determining, at the first mobile device, whether a share command has been initiated, the share command associated with an email to be shared with the second mobile device. The method includes sending a first identifier from the first mobile device to the second mobile device via an NFC transmission. The method includes receiving, at the first mobile device, a second identifier from the second mobile device, the second identifier comprising user information related to (i) a second user and (ii) the email to be shared. The method includes associating the second user as a recipient to the email to be shared.

1. A computer-implemented method for communication between a first mobile device and a second mobile device using a short-range wireless communication medium, the method comprising:
determining, at the first mobile device, whether communication with the second mobile device via the short-range wireless communication medium is enabled; determining, at the first mobile device, whether a share command has been initiated, the share command associated with an email to be shared with the second mobile device; sending a first identifier from the first mobile device to the second mobile device via the short-range wireless communication medium based on the share command being initiated, the first identifier comprising user information related to (i) a first user and (ii) the email to be shared; receiving, at the first mobile device, a second identifier from the second mobile device, the second identifier comprising user information related to (i) a second user and (ii) the email to be shared; and associating the second user as a recipient to the email to be shared based on receiving the second identifier.
